Didn't see this posted, so I figured I'd give it a shot. Retails for $399.99, but I believe it originally retailed for $299.99, so
technically not a huge discount. Also, with the ongoing GPU crisis, this product may seem worthless to most. However, I recently picked up both a Razer Blade Stealth and a GPU, so I jumped on it. If you're eligible for the $15 off credit via the Amazon app, it makes it even better.

My EVGA RTX 3080 runs about 5 degrees cooler without the outer casing on, so I usually run it like that. Performance hit through Thunderbolt is barely noticeable, but I'm not running crazy demanding AAA games.
When mining ETH, it loses around 5 MH/s compared to if running direct on a motherboard.
As a unit itself. It supports charging. So if you have a macbook, this will charge your macbook with extra gpu processing and external display hooked up to just a single thunderbolt 3 cable.
As someone said, compatibility with mac osx and nvidia is not built in. only amd radeon graphics. so if you have that setup, it requires some tinkering
a year ago I thought it'd be great for my MacBook, but compatibility with nvidia and macOS is a deal breaker.

That was a while ago, so the USB issues may have been fixed. But it's something to look into if you're considering the Chroma over this.
